Trump is coming.

As the president of the United States. As the leader of the free world. And as social media's next big challenge.

Donald Trump won't take residence in the White House until January, but a new social media challenge is poking fun at the hysteria over the reality star-turned-President-elect's upcoming starring role in the government.

(Video contains some graphic language).

In the "Trump is Coming!" challenge -- which is mostly performed by students -- a group of bystanders exaggeratedly runs away screaming when someone yells the challenge's titular phrase.

As if beating Hillary Clinton wasn't enough. Now, the soon-to-be world leader appears to be taking down the popular Mannequin Challenge.
